Summit County is more than a “spot on the map” for us, who live here full-time or part-time it is a true gem, a true community, and it offers the opportunity for all part-time residents to become part of this as well. Our visitors are invited to enjoy themselves and also to help protect our wonderful Mountain Community.
Summit County is known for World Class Skiing at Arapahoe Basin, Breckenridge, Copper Mountain and Keystone and is world famous for POWDER, ski terrain for all abilities and “Good Ole Western Hospitality”.
When here, you’ll see the Continental Divide to the East, The Ten Mile and Gore Range on the West, Mount Guyot and Baldy to the South and the Williams Fork to the North. Lake Dillon which is beautifully framed into this mountain setting is fed by the Blue River, Snake River, Ten Mile Creek…and all rivers are fed by Mountain snowmelt. The rivers mentioned, are prime fishing for those who enjoy the sport. If you are into mountain or road biking, there are a variety of paths and trails to choose from, for all skill levels. (However: One word of caution, if you are from lower elevations, you will quickly learn that it can be challenging to ride at 9400 feet or higher.)
Our Mountain Lifestyle in this pristine environment with its year-round offerings deserve to be protected, nurtured and treasured and therefore regardless how far you have traveled the locals ask that you are courteous and respectful to “all creatures big and small”. Summit County and the communities that make up our Playground…welcome YOU ALL!

It is special to us to live here, and we hope you enjoy your stay and appreciate the fresh air, skiing, hiking, sailing, rafting, attending live theatre performances, farmers markets or dining in a myriad of restaurants. SUMMIT COUNTY INVITES YOU TO “COLORADO’S PLAYGROUND”.
